Mythili Iyengar

I am an artist specializing in creating abstract landscapes and Indian folk art, blending contemporary techniques with traditional motifs to produce a unique and captivating body of work. My artistic journey has been deeply influenced by my surroundings and cultural heritage, leading me to explore these two distinct yet complementary styles.

Abstract landscapes form a significant part of my portfolio. In these works, I strive to capture the essence of nature through an abstract lens, using bold colors, dynamic compositions, and textured layers to evoke emotions and convey a sense of movement. My abstract landscapes are not mere representations of specific places but rather expressions of the moods and atmospheres that nature inspires. Each piece invites the viewer to interpret the scene in their own way, creating a personal connection with the artwork.

On the other hand, my Indian folk art pieces draw heavily from the rich traditions and folklore of India. I am fascinated by the intricate patterns, vibrant colors, and symbolic meanings found in various Indian folk art forms. By incorporating these elements into my work, I aim to celebrate and preserve this cultural heritage while giving it a modern twist. My folk art pieces often feature themes from mythology, daily life, and nature, rendered with meticulous detail and a deep sense of reverence for the traditions they represent.

Combining these two styles allows me to explore the interplay between the abstract and the figurative, the modern and the traditional. My work seeks to create a dialogue between different artistic languages, offering viewers a diverse and enriching visual experience. Through my art, I hope to bridge the gap between past and present, nature and culture, and to inspire others to see the beauty and connections that exist within these contrasts.

As an artist, I am constantly evolving, experimenting with new techniques and materials to push the boundaries of my creativity. My goal is to continue developing my unique voice in the art world, sharing my vision with a broader audience, and contributing to the rich tapestry of contemporary and traditional art.
